Abstract
This paper is set out to examine the empowerment for women trough credit facilities in the developing countries. Too much are often expected from women both at the monogamy and polygamy setting. Some women are the bread winners of their family, why some supplement the efforts of their husbands. Many find it difficult to make two ends meet, thereby resulting in junk food vendors or petty trading. Access to credit facility will afford them the opportunity of having stable economic and overall development for themselves, families and the nation in general.
Key words: Women, empowerment, credit, money-making venture, junk food, entrepreneurship, sustainable.
